Soon it will be Christmas and all thru the land not an economist was stirred by all the hype that Trump brought into the land. Forecast after forecast by the media paints a rosy picture unaware of what really lies ahead. But, still it is Christmas, a time that should provide good holiday cheer.

Donald Trump's election victory represented a stunning embarrassing and humiliating blow to the credibility of media, pundits and pollsters. Despite their deep resources, their quantitative analysis was - for lack of a better word - "trumped" by the qualitative decisions by the large undecided block of voters as well as those who cleverly hid their intentions throughout the campaign.

Is it just me or is there a divided world emerging? We probably all know it's always been there. But with the advent of society's problem with and reaction to political correctness gone too far, the divisions are emerging everywhere and they're affecting lives - separating good friends, for instance, because the sharp malalignment of even one passionately felt issue disintegrates their affection.

It was a given that someone would call for a recount of the votes cast during the 2016 presidential election. This call for a recount is becoming a growing trend since the Florida election recount of the 2000 presidential election between George W. Bush and Al Gore, and augmented by the Washington gubernatorial election recount of 2004, the Vermont Auditor of Accounts election of 2006, the Florida congressional elections of 2006, and the United States Senate election in Minnesota in 2008.

Even though the presidential election has come to an end, it doesn't mean that everyone is willing to accept the result. There are going to be plenty of people who are still in shock, even though a number of weeks have now passed.

We can continue down the path of war, hatred, greed and violence and obliterate ourselves, or we can create a new paradigm. The old paradigm is run by authorities who have grown-up bodies, but their brains are functioning as a six-year-old. At the moment six-year-old bullies are continually stirring up trouble to overrun humanity. We are at a crossroads. You can be a part of creating the new paradigm!

Now that the presidential election has ended, it has given people the opportunity to focus on something else. Therefore, if someone was caught up with what was taking place; their life may have gone back to how it was.

How does the mainstream media works in America - An inside look Recently, many Democratic and Socialist friends of mine have commented on how the media provides Donald Trump unfair amounts of coverage while Bernie Sanders' mentions, even in the last leg of his race, didn't come close. I couldn't help but wonder if Donald Trump won the election without much coverage of his rhetorics and went on to act on the signature promises of his campaign, like the Muslim ban or the border wall, the same friends would go, "Oh, the media never told us."...

This article discusses how we allow fear to rules our lives, which ultimately stunts our growth and keeps us from becoming our best selves. The current Presidential Election provides us with the perfect metaphor.

Former President Ronald Reagan was known as the "Great Communicator." Reagan is remembered for his dynamic delivery skills and optimistic messages. We can learn how to be more effective speakers and communicators by reviewing three key qualities in President Reagan's public speaking style:

For the past two years we have been warning that the was a major trend change coming that would affect the global economy, global currencies, politics, & your family's financial well-being. We highlighted that the driving theme of these major changes would be the loss of confidence & rising distrust in Government.

The nation is arguably as divided as it was in the years leading up to the election of Abraham Lincoln - and we all know how that turned out. Divisions are nearly equally divided not just between Democrats and Republicans and liberals and conservatives, but as well between urban and rural, young and old, educated and not so much and the prosperous and the have nots. There are more divisions, but this listing makes the point. So, what a wellness enthusiast to think and, more important, do about such a state of national affairs. A few suggestions are highlighted.

Sorry to have to break it to you. The truth is that President-elect Donald Trump is not anti-establishment. Certainly he is the opposite to Hillary Clinton in many ways; he will bring different policies to the country and a new look to the White House. Yet these two are only opposite in the same way day is different from night. Day and night together make up one 24 hour cycle of a calendar day. Similarly, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton together comprised the whole of the 2016 presidential election.

In today's chaotic world one can relate to the Doors rendition of "Riders On The Storm". We as a society especially after the Trump election victory that's if you can call it that, precludes that we all are riders on a storm. A storm of unimaginable upheaval in the world around.

A number of days have passed since Donald Trump won the presidential election, but this doesn't mean that everyone has come to terms with what has taken place. There are plenty of people who can't get their head around what has happened.

Democrats and Republicans have always been at odds in politics. Since the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt; Americans reached a tipping point even back then. After World War II, America wanted to help as many people as they could and that theme has carried over into the 21st Century of politics. Since the New Deal was devised, it was a revolutionary boon for the Democratic Party. Forever thankful would the people be for helping them survive after the war that devastated families who lost so much.

When someone has achieved a certain level of fame, there are a number of things that they can do. On one hand, they could use it to increase their income; with their being a number of ways that this can be done.

The 2016 presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump is sparking heated debate and causing great division between America and her citizens. If our nation is to move forward in a positive direction, working together, not against one another, is the key. We must put our differences aside for the greater good.

Donald Trump has won the presidency. How can he affect the United States and the real estate industry he belongs to once he assumes office on January 20, 2017? This article gives off some of these possibilities.

The fact that some Universities and their professors in the United States cancelled or postponed classes and projects to enable students deal with the trauma and stress they were experiencing following the result of the Presidential Election points to a singular failure of their part to fulfill their role as educators. As institutions of higher education and learning they are tasked with encouraging the development of the minds and intellect of young students so they will have the capacity to, inter alia, explore, research, analyse. comprehend, apply and disseminate experience and knowledge. They ought to enable students to rationalise and understand a range of complex information covering, public administration, social administration, economics, law and in the course of comparative studies develop appreciation of the democratic process and alternative political regimes. One could hope this is not just reserved for students of political sciences alone.

In the same way that food brands often rely on different celebrities to sell their products; presidential candidates can also look towards these kinds of people in order to encourage people to vote for them. When it comes to the former, it could be said that the stakes are relatively low.

Now that the presidential election is over, it can't be denied that some people's emotions have been running high. In some cases, what has taken place is seen as the worst possible outcome, and for others, it is something they have dreamed about for a quiet some time.

The American presidential election has now come to an end, and this has given people plenty to talk about. For some people, the result will be the best thing that could have happened, and for others, it will be the worst possible outcome.

White people have elected Donald Trump and the Republican majorities in the House and Senate. That's white power. Now we need to think about how we use that power. do we use it to attack others or do we use it to truly help ourselves and helping all Americans? It's up to us.

Now that the election is over, it has given people the chance to share their views on what has taken place. This could be a time when one is happy about how it is has gone, or they could feel let down.

I suspect that a vast majority of Americans do not actively participate in government. My comment is not about employment in government, rather it is communication, sharing your views to elected officials who represent you. In many years, politicians worry about getting enough citizens to bother to vote at all. Voting is important, yet somehow, Americans do not understand that voting is only part of their responsibility as citizens. We are all supposed to pay attention to the activity of our elected officials and regularly tell them what we want them to do about crafting or refining laws that affect us.

The United States and our CIA often intervene in foreign elections to try to get the voters to vote one way or the other. Our President has tried to influence the elections in many countries with speeches - remember the Brexit Vote? Some world leaders are very upset in hindsight when they win - look at the President of Philippines for instance. Now then, none of this is new, we've been doing it all over the planet for decades, and we probably will continue to do so, even as we claim to be for democracy, aka: power to the people.

Chiefs are custodians of culture and arbitrators of riots in the society. They must remain neutral in all political activities in the nation so that they can effectively play their roles with dignity and respect. This will promote social cohesion and unity in a nation divided by political affiliations.

When it comes to who would make the best president, it is not uncommon for people to talk about Hillary Clinton. As far as they are concerned, she could be seen as someone who has what it takes to lead America.

The Green Party faces an uphill challenge in the 2016 Presidential election to reach its 5% goal. However, a careful look at various demographics reveals that the path is not as daunting as many experts claim it to be.

It is not uncommon to hear people talk about how bad Donald Trump is, and they could have a number of different reasons as to why they have come to this conclusion. In fact, they might not even feel the need to go into why they have this outlook.

The book of Daniel is known for its prophecies that span the centuries and show amazing accuracy. In this article, we see the biographical chapters also have an application to "latter days" and end-times. The obvious is Obamacare from Daniel 1, but all of the first five chapters can fit what's been happening under Obama.

If someone pays attention to the mainstream media, they are likely to have heard a lot about both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. And while this could be due to the living in America, this might not be the case.

The claim that Donald Trump will win the 2016 presidency in a landslide may seem surprising to some. After all, the media arrogantly assert that Hillary Clinton is the certain winner. The reality is that there are historical reasons why Donald Trump will be our next president.

Until 1824, there were no popular votes in U.S. Presidential elections to determine the vote of the Electoral College for the President of the United States. During, and after 1824, unscrupulous Presidential candidates, such as Presidential Candidate and Secretary of State John Q. Adams, used the Electoral College to manipulate their successful selection as President through the U.S. House of Representatives. This was how Andrew Jackson lost the Election of 1824, when he won the popular vote and the Electoral vote. It looks like Hillary's long-arm can probably extend into the 2016 Presidential Election to arrange for California's 55 Electoral votes to go to her, even if Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump wins the California popular vote. Would this be a violation of the will of the California electorate? Read on for a cogent examination of these issues...

Did you know that a great heart shines though its owner's personality? Think about it. Are you not drawn to be near people who smile, who are generous, happy, trustworthy, genuine, and true, as if they were a light and you were a moth? The light in them shines even brighter when the heart of a good person is in the body of a philosopher.

Allowing an outsider to run for President of the United States is believed to be the biggest mistake the Republican Party has made to date. Outside of electing President Nixon and having to impeach him; the Republican Party has struggled to gain diversity in their party for more than half-a-century. The leadership of the Republican Party refuses to change the projection of their party. The Republican Party continues to listen to old Party favorites from the 1940s and 1950's.

My opinion probably won't make a difference in the 2016 election, but it will allow us to see another side of the process. President Barack Obama is from my city. There are over four decades of popular candidates that reside in Chicago and President Obama happens to be one of them. The other ones are Jesse Jackson Jr., Sandy Jackson (Jesse Jr.'s wife), Danny Davis, Bobby Rush, and Luis Gutierrez is the Congressman. In the case of Jesse Jr., who he is a former Congressman and his wife a former Chicago Alderman--who no longer serves. Another prominent leader and Mayor of Chicago was the first black mayor Harold Washington. He died suddenly during work and never regained consciousness. So, Chicago has offered up many political leaders; including former Senator Carol Moseley-Braun, who is the first and only black woman to win a Senate seat. Moseley-Bran, did not win her second election back in 1996 due to election funding irregularities.

During the third and final 2016 Presidential Debate between Hillary Rodham Clinton and Donald J. Trump, Mr. Trump was asked if he'd honor the election if he lost. He said he wasn't sure, we shall see, and then when asked again by the moderator to qualify that statement he doubled-down and is now taking heat for it. Some, including Hillary Clinton said she thought that was "Horrifying" which I guess is a nice term only a week after Halloween when voting takes place.

Wondering where the Republican Party started to go wrong. If you look at history you will have your answer. The world has watched as the Republican Party of a span of 40 years has gone downhill, based on its own accord. A total re-establishing of what they represent is in order. If there is a push to create an alt-right party then say it. Nothing is more corrupt than sneaking around and not telling the American people that you expect to become an alt-right party. It is apparent that the GOP has some explaining to do when it is all said and done this fall.

While looking at the candidates that we normally allow to run for President of the United States; there is no vetting for this job. The Constitution allows for us to be 35-years-old, a naturalized citizen, and lived in the United States for14 years. That is the lowest requirements for any job I've ever seen. We claim the job of President is the highest and most important job in the land--and we don't ask for a drug test, an application, a credit report, no taxes, no background test of any kind. It's the only job in the nation; that I am aware that you do not need more scrutiny than what the Constitution allows for the President.

No one would have believed it had it not been for Police Officer Frank Serpico in New York, who testified against officers in the ranks, who were seemingly more and more corrupt, and participating in criminal activity. It only took one person to come forward. In the Rodney King beating four police officers in Los Angeles decided to change their posture and go against The Blue Code of Silence in that case. Can the same thing happen in other police departments all over the country and can change become a thing of the future and effectively change the notorious cultures within our police departments--those are the questions.

If you exhibit national pride in 2016, you're labeled a jingoistic hoodlum or a xenophobic barbarian. You're regarded as an unsophisticated, uneducated, artless fool clinging to a dusty print of Norman Rockwell's America. You are inwardly pitied and outwardly mocked for being so very backward, provincial and unrefined. How on earth did we get here?

Doing laundry is probably the most mundane chore that man is regulated to by their wives. Every week it is my dutiful obligation to keep the sanctity of marriage that I obediently comply in venturing off to the laundromat. In keeping with those never ending honey do lists there is no respite from "when you finish could you do this.

Wow, isn't this 2016 Presidential Election Campaign crazy? Hillary Clinton is running around like a man-hating feminist and her campaign is attacking Donald Trump on issues that are rather hilarious. I mean come on already, Donald Trump is the ultimate Alpha Male Billionaire boys club member - what does America want a weak pansy-ass man who has coward down to be walked over by the feminist movement? That certainly wouldn't be a leader I'd want to lead the United States of America in the age of Nuclear Terrorism. BTW - nuclear terrorism era only exists because of mistakes made by the Obama Administration, UN, IAEA, US State Department and this notion of "win their hearts and minds" by rolling over and giving them whatever they want in the Iran Nuke Deal negotiations.

There is no provision in the United States Constitution that would permit the people of the United States from refusing to elect a President. Essentially, if a single vote is cast, the one who receives that one vote would become President. No one has conceived and codified into law what to do if not a single vote is cast.

The articles that I read are trying to dismiss what feminism means and disparage the women who have been considered fighting for women's rights. This season of political nonsense and for the first time having a strong woman running for President of the United States is coming under attack--and I want to assess why it's happening.

There are times when the media has a number of things that they focus on, and then there are others when this is not going to be the case. Instead, they can have one area that will take centre stage, so to speak.

Freedom and emancipation from the clutches of the global oppressor-the Great Britain- materialized almost seven decades ago.Pakistan came into being and waves of glee were felt across the Indus valley of yore.

As of lately the media has portrayed much chaos, all at an immensely alarming rate, and not just local predicaments, but major events taking place globally. Everyday you hear news of "Shootings" "Riots" "Attacks" etc. Simply put, its violence affecting vast amounts of people.

There are a great many intelligent American Voters who know the difference between what is right, and what is wrong; between what is moral and what is immoral; between what is deceitfully criminal and what is not. I also believe that there are a great many voters in 2016 who are ambivalent about what their choice will be between two candidates for the U.S. Presidency on November 9th. I believe that there is only one viable choice that can be made to ensure that the American doesn't go down the sewage drain any further than it has during the last eight years. It is really a basic different as clearly denoted as between daylight and pitch darkness, as between the blackness of mortal sin and the clean whiteness of the driven snow. All human beings have that precious gift from God to discern this basic difference. Read on for a further understanding of this difference.

These are trying times. There is a lot of hatred and bitterness around. Don't let hate infect your heart, nor allow bitterness to ruin relationships. We are witnessing hatred on a massive scale, caused by various incidents. "We cannot let hatred spread" was a headline in a recent newspaper. A racist is a person who hates the person of another race, and can be a bigot, a bully, making insensitive jokes and jibes about others, seeking to belittle them. Jesus Christ calls disciples to be peacemakers, or reconcilers. Who says you are better than others? We hear people say, "I am proud of being a Scot" - but did we have any choice? If I hate because of culture, colour, or accent, it is because I am ignorant and in the darkness, and I am blind and cannot see.

Yes, There Are Dozens - I'm Stopping At 10 I know this article is going to cause most Never-Trumpers to roll their eyes and start mumbling about principles and temperament, but someone has to take the initiative to state the obvious. I hope my message gets past the initial reaction of "not another one".

Well, like 50% of the 81 million Americans who watched the first face-to-face presidential debate of the 2016 Election, I turned it off after about 25-30 minutes. Why you ask? Well, it was just nonsense, political theater in my view. One thing I can say is that Hillary Clinton described something so similar to what Obama promised he'd do to create jobs during the 2008 election. He implemented much of his promised economic plan, but to no avail.

When American History is taught there is an oversight. An oversight that has universal consequences of how our government has morphed into this self serving bureaucracy that we have today. What is being purposely omitted in every history class pertains to the original 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution.

The presidential debates have always represented the game-changing moments requiring a change of tactics by the candidate trailing in the polls. And this is why underdog Donald Trump will most likely do the so-called unthinkable and transform himself into a genuine statesman to charm and endear himself to the millions of undecided voters that he needs to win on Election Day.

Governing a group of people or nation is a heinous task for any individual in the community occupying a leadership position. However, it is also an honor that few in the community can have. Thus, the office is properly referred to as an 'honourable office'. The sole aim of leadership is to bring relief to the subjects while solving the challenges that they face in their everyday life. The holder of such key office is supposed to equitably use the resources in the nation or society for the advancement of the socio-economic development of the people.

In these days of big news media and politics if a political party does not have its, "Owned Media" they will struggle to get their message out past the political parties that do own their political organization news media outlets. The news media outlets of today can without a doubt be seen as political organizations owned by politicians that have risen up to be apart of large groups and control the political party. Many of these politically owned national media outlets donate huge amounts of cash to the political party they are owned by

Socialism in Indonesia is unique and different than any other type of Socialism in the world. In this article we are going to examine the difference between Indonesian Socialism, Democratic Socialism and Central Planning Socialism or Communism.

This 2016 presidential race demonstrates just how awful our so called democracy has become. It is proof positive that Americans have help create and sustain a delusional democracy. If Americans want to reform and fix their political system, then they should boycott this presidential election and show the world their rejection of a corrupt, dysfunctional system that now serves the rich and powerful.

Election Day is near. Now springs to life, more so than normally, an exaggerated sense of importance expressed by the liberal media of African-American voting in a presidential election. This baseless and erroneous agreement among these pontificators of race and politics in this country that winning the "black vote" by overwhelming numbers is paramount to any person seeking to be elected President of the United States, and especially so in 2016. Who, except for the left wing, liberal press corps gives a damned really about how many black votes Trump will or will not get? It simply is so far down the list of priorities that it barely weighs in on any discussion of election statistics if objectively considered. That election statistic is a long-time out-of-date, over-inflated assessment of the importance placed on who convinces blacks to vote for them. Primarily, the reason for this is that blacks are only a small minority of our population-a tad over 12 % (As Jerry Seinfeld would say, "Not that there's anything wrong with that!"), largely concentrated in the urban areas of Cleveland, Detroit, New York City, etc.,... it makes as much difference as a fat rat's patooty who blacks ultimately vote for.

Recently, a commentator stated that Donald Trump's Immigration Policy doesn't speak for Americans, and his vengeance against Mexicans is wrong. Wow, when I heard that I thought, this individual is completely missing the boat and obviously a hard-core left-leaning college brain-washed Hillary Clintonite who only listens to Cable TV news like CNN - or the Clinton News Network.

Whereas, it is true we need to deport illegal aliens who've come to the US and committed crimes, as Donald Trump notes, we also need to get an idea of how many total illegal aliens are here, where they are, and who the heck they are - we do not know that. When President Obama took control of the Census and quickly hired it out to ACORN we got back impossible statistics proving the US Census was just a mess of bureaucracy - they were unable to count the number of illegal aliens, and ended up with other statistics that were so far out of whack with the Tiger Files (tend lines of population growth) that the data was unusable.

Is this an hour to pause and consider and think? Why? Well, I have never seen our world in such dire straits with warfare and suffering and bloodshed and pain abounding globally. Do we need a fresh prophetic voice today to lead and direct and guide the peoples? By prophetic voice I mean a word from a man who has taken time to hear from Almighty God and who has the courage to deliver that word. If such a voice was raised up and spoke, would the peoples give heed and listen and pay attention? Or, would they tell the prophet to be quiet and go away as they did in the days of Amos? God never does anything without first revealing His plan to His servants the prophets. The prophet is a key to what God is doing.

UK Independence Party leader, Nigel Farage stated on BBC, after the result was clear, that Brexit was an uprising against the big corporations and power brokers control. Thus, the victory was a 'victory for ordinary, hard-working people.' I think a great many ordinary, hard-working people voted to remain in the EU, so I believe there is less impact on this absolute part of Farage's statement. However, as we notice in the U.S. 2016 election cycle one of the main issues is corporate control and the 1% ultra wealthy have more influence on all issues, because they have money to bring the biggest clout vis-?-vis lobbyists and financial influence.

There are several types of Socialism in the world, such as Centralized Socialism and Democratic Socialism which I have discussed in my previous articles. These socialistic ideas are mainly based on the aspect of humanity. In the first part of this article, I would like to discuss about Socialism in Indonesia, which is based more on a theological basis. I would call it Pancasila Socialism. What is Pancasila? Let us start with a little background about Indonesia and Pancasila.

In an uncertain world where so much vile terror continues seeping into every corner of the world, where so much despicable acts are committed against man and nature, where more inequality creates so much animosity there has to be questions that has to be asked. Yet, no one has come forth asking the right questions let alone offer answers to what the hell is going on in the world today. If this past years Presidential primary season was any indication where questions should still be asked has proven the United States is...

Speaking to a nearly all-black audience, Tim Kaine, Hillary Clinton's Vice Presidential Candidate, said that Donald Trump is pushing KKK values. Wow, I cannot believe this aggressive BS, the Democrats really love to call their competitors "Racists". Now then, do we really want a President who goes around calling everyone a racist that does not politically agree with him or her? I sure don't, especially since we already have that now, and it has set race relations back generations due to President Barack Obama's political rhetoric. Let's talk.

I will never understand the deep-seeded hatred that it must take to brutalize another human being; particularly when it occurs without just cause and is driven by racial injustice. I realize this is a very touchy subject no matter which side of the debate you are on. But, at the very minimum, anyone who cares anything about humanity must take a stance and make a commitment to stop the violence.

In my previous articles about Socialism we've discussed about Democratic Socialism in Scandinavia; its definition, its funding and its impact to the people well-being. In this article we are going to examine some of the challenges and how would it affect its sustainability in the future.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation or notorious inept FBI tells us that they cannot prove intent when it comes to the Clinton email scandal (having home servers used for official State Department business, and often top secret communication). The DOJ (Department of Justice) will not hire an independent investigation of Hillary's "pay-to-play" scandal for which there is now a ton of evidence with the recent 15,000 additional emails and Hillary Clinton's schedule for meeting with donors to the Clinton Foundation while she was Secretary of State.

Every time Hillary Clinton is asked about her corrupt activities, she blames it on Right-Wing Conspiracy Theorists, but this attempt to divert attention is ridiculous. Who knows maybe she fell down and hit her head or something, as often those with damaged noggins start wearing aluminum hats and think everyone is out to get them - paranoia is a real problem in our society. Of course; "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you," which was a famous quote from Joseph Heller.

In my previous article, "Is Socialism the Road to Communism?", I have mentioned Bernie Sanders who has single-handedly brought the term "democratic socialism" into contemporary American political lexicon and shaken its landscape by citing the "success" of several Scandinavian countries as the model of Socialism, which is also called the Nordic system.

Socialism has become the new buzzword in recent American political lexicon. What is socialism, how many types are there in our world and how does it impact the condition of a country thus the well being of its people. Does it work or how should it work? This is the first out of my three articles about Socialism namely, "Is Socialism the road to Communism or Totalitarianism?", "Democratic Socialism" and "Pancasila Socialism" that I have written.

Many people voted for Barack Obama because they believed it was proof that we in the US have conquered race-relations - unfortunately, once elected and after 8-years we see that race-relations are worse than they were in the late 70s and early 80s, basically we lost nearly 4-decades of improvement in race-relations. Now then, what might hiring Hillary Clinton as president do for male-female relations or gender relations? Personally, I like women and wouldn't want to live in a world without them, and the last thing I'd want is to have a war of the planets,...

Trump. People at the other end of the spectrum are happy to hear someone express the rage they feel because their lives are not the way they would like to see them. Most of these people don't dare to share their anger or lash out at anyone who could possibly be responsible for their lives being a mess but suffer in resignation.

With less than 80 days left until the 2016 Presidential Election CNN and the rest of the left-wing media is purporting high polling numbers for Hillary Clinton and stacking their commentators and interviewees with hardened pro-Clinton bias. Unfortunately, the viewers of these networks are tuning out. At first the networks assumed it was due to the 2016 RIO Olympics, but now they see it wasn't only the Olympics infringing on their previously solid viewership ratings - it's also due to the fact that their fake polls and attempts at leftist brain-washing. Lesson to the leftist networks; "you cannot fool most of the people most of the time" for long.

There are some great lessons in the Presidential campaign of Donald Trump. This is a man whose brand was known in the marketplace, but more as a sideshow. He was known as financially successful, but not in a traditional way.

Not long ago, I was speaking to a 'Hillary Clinton for President Supporter' with a bumper sticker on his electric car. When I questioned him and asked him about integrity when it came to the Clintons he explained to me that the conspiracy theorists on the right were making it all up about Hillary's email scandal, and Clinton Foundation - simply because the Republicans don't have any other way to beat her. Well, I just had to laugh because the Clinton's lack-of-ethics is somewhat legendary in America. Let's dig up some older issues to prove my point.

Democrats won't seem to come to the realization that Hillary Clinton's mental health condition is quickly deteriorating - and one shouldn't be surprised with her campaign schedule, she isn't getting much sleep. With her previous slips and falls, mini-seizures and occasional periods of apparent disorientation - can she keep up the facade? Bill Clinton isn't in much better shape either and mind you Hillary Clinton told supporters in one of her epic speeches that Bill was going to run her economic agenda, the same man who fell asleep during Hillary's acceptance speech at the DNC. I guess being asleep on the job is better than sleeping with interns on the job?

Article 370 is a temporary provision that grants special autonomous status to J&K. All the laws and provisions of the constitution of India which are applicable to other states are not applicable to Jammu and Kashmir. According to Article 370, except for defense, finance, foreign affairs, and communications, The Parliament of India needs the concurrence of state government for applying all other laws.

Never before in the history of this nation has there been such a sense that something is drastically wrong in America today. Now we have a Presidential candidate that with all his faults has hit a nerve with the American public today. A nerve that resonates the growing tempest that has seeped into every fabric of American society.

Voter-shaming and the overzealousness by way of enforcing of fear upon the "undecided" voter by getting us to concede to the "lesser of two evils" doesn't work. It's didn't in 2004 and it won't now. This approach stinks. It's time people sought out a better alternative approach or leave us be.

My friends, who are Catholic, have five daughters who have chosen very different life styles. My son-in-law is half African/American and half Italian. Today, many American families are composites of different ethnic and religious backgrounds. Yet, Donald Trump's followers rail against immigration and these modern American values. Under this assault, can America retain its values?
